Death’s pure counterfeit,
In a horrid form,
Jerking and pursuing,
One to be forlorn.
Rampaging images
.
– among silhouettes of reality.
Placating iniquity
.
– amid white washed tombs.
No more! Screeched she,
.
The one with the vacant face and un...

Every avid reader has their own guilty pleasure within a certain genre. For me that is Historical Romance novels. It seems that as soon as I open the cover to one, I can’t put it down until the plot line has concluded. I know. A little embarrassing, but if anything being acutely aware this una...

There are certain stories that will always be timeless, compelling, and very much needed within the confines of any society and any time period. Such stories may be loved, and my be hated but are needed none the less. One story that falls within the confines of this classification is The Help. An...

There's a numbness inside of me that knows you must feel something, somewhere deep down inside. Maybe not for me. Maybe not for someone on this planet but I know you have feelings none the less. You try to hide them amidst the slouch in your walk. The empty gaze of your facade. But it'...

"Two roads diverged in a yellow wood"?
but I wondered-why couldn't there be a third?
now you may be saying-isn't that a little absurd?
But where that road should have been is where I stood-
Wishing, hoping, dreaming for a third,
Yet I stood so quite you heard the coo of a ...

If I could give you one word to say-
one word to lift your spirits,
If I could give you one word today-
this word would have no limits.
Hope and dream with all you can-
with all the strength that you can use,
Realize you're not a grain of sand-
face all this truth and don't refuse...

The walls close in on me with my thoughts-
The darkness of my temper rages-
and now all these feelings which I have fought,
may be temporarily let out of their withering cages.
In this cave that no one can find,
is where I choose to release my mind,
letting go of the things which bound me-

Hope in the slightest-
will keep us moving on,
Hope for tomorrow-
and Hope for the dawn.
Hope for another breathe-
Hope for our sight-
Hope for the darkness,
and Hope for the light.
Hope at it's least-
will keep our courage flowing,
Hope that's eternal-
and Hope that is stil...

"Tell me" of all the things,
you do not think you can achieve,
and i will in turn tell you,
of all the things you should believe.
"Life is" not some meaningless facade,
for you to carry on worthless games,
never believing in your own "greatness",
in your own p...

I tell myself I'm over it,
as i swallow deep and hard,
i will no longer be tormented,
by your everfailing heart,
I've wasted so much time,
on thoughtless thoughts about you,
wasted countless moments,
dreaming dreams that won't come true,
dreams in which you LOVE me too,
d...

I inhale. I exhale. The pencil in my hand nervously taps the paper as I anxiously wait, and then...just as abrupt blowing of the shiftless wind outside in the "real" world, I begin.
I scribble. I scrawl. Words illegible to all but me. My pencil sings sweet nothings to the feathered...
